@kevincastillo-io
I’m a software engineer with around five years of professional experience, including enterprise roles at HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise.
What I'm looking for
I published Routini, a minimal React router in TypeScript, with View Transitions and lazy routes. As an independent software engineer, I also contributed to front-end design and development for ClashStats, a sports app built with React and Next.js.
At Hewlett Packard Enterprise, I developed features, enhancements, and bug fixes for a microservices app used in partner factories worldwide. Its stack included Java, Spring Boot, REST, React, ActiveMQ, SQL Server, and Docker.
I also developed features for a React-based health monitoring service, including REST API, backend, and messaging logic for real-time updates. I improved its UX, visual consistency, and design, and addressed performance, cybersecurity, and synchronization issues.
Earlier, I migrated factory-app UI features from Java GWT to React at Hewlett Packard and created a WordPress–Google Sheets integration plugin as a freelance web developer. I also designed and deployed my personal portfolio using Figma and Astro.
